He won the debate.

To anyone doubting....I told you he won based off changing the public's perception about him. He was a totally different guy up there and by design too. The campaign knew what they were doing.

I don't know who in the hell is running that shit show for Hillary.

[Facepalm]

Wrong.

http://nymag.com/daily/intelligencer/2016/09/clinton-gains-4-points-on-trump-in-first-post-debate-poll.html

As of this writing, the only other post-debate survey is the L.A. Times/USC tracking poll, which has Trump leading by four points, an advantage roughly twice as large as it was at last week’s end. However, that tracking poll uses a weighted average of past results and includes only one day of post-debate polling. It has also been a pro-Trump outlier for the entire cycle. So, it probably doesn’t tell us much about the effect of Monday’s contest, and its voter model should be viewed with some skepticism.


In the post-debate survey of a four-way race, Clinton bests Trump 41 to 38 percent, while Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson claims 8 percent and Green Party nominee Jill Stein carries 4. In Morning Consult’s previous poll, Trump led Clinton 39 to 38.

The debate "moderator" should not be 'fact checking' in the middle of a candidates speeches in the first place.

It was Hilldawg's job to debate Trump's points. All she did was tell people to go to her internet fact checking site, and she even had Lester Holt fact check things for her.

It was 2 on 1.

The American people saw through it, and it made him look like a plucky underdog fighting against the establishment.

Your girl Hilldawg was born and raised in Illinois.


Hillary Diane Rodham was born on October 26, 1947, at Edgewater Hospital in Chicago, Illinois.She was raised in a United Methodist family, first in Chicago and then, from the age of three, in suburban Park Ridge, Illinois.Her father, Hugh Ellsworth Rodham (1911–1993), was of Welsh and English descent; he managed a successful small business in the textile industry. Her mother, Dorothy Emma Howell (1919–2011), was a homemaker of English, Scottish, French-Canadian, and Welsh descent. Hillary has two younger brothers, Hugh and Tony.

LA Times are owned by the Tribune and hardly a pro-Trump medium.

Have you read the articles the write about him?


This has nothing to do with their polling or why their polling might be favoring Trump. The editorial/news departments have nothing to do with the polling which is done by USC.

Their polling is a tracking poll of the same group over and over again. So it's a lot less random that other polling. They had slowly increased the size of the group they poll, but if they just happened to pick a pro Trump or pro Hillary group at the beginning, that will affect all subsequent polls.


And to the OP, this is not the first post-debate poll. The LA Times says they take a rolling 7 day average of polls. It takes a few days to analyze/model the data. The earliest the post-debate polling should be reflected in the polling is Friday they said.

So you can use this poll to analyze trends. Trump doing well before the debate. By this time next week, we will know how this group thought he did during the debate. But since it's not totally random, unless they got it right the first time, it's not going to be a useful as other random polls or averges

Can someone explain to me why Trump has absolutely no shot in NY?

http://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/2016-election-forecast/new-york/

Hillary has atm a 99% chance vs Trump's 1% of winning NY.

A lifelong New Yorker vs a recent transplant to New York, and Drumpf basically has no shot, in his hometown???

Yes I understand NY is predominantly Democratic, but aren't Trumptards claiming that Trump is attracting disgruntled Democrats? You mean to tell me he can't even semi put in play his homestate??? :wtf:

Remember, Giuliani and Bloomberg were Republican mayors, and they governed 20 of the last 24 years in New York City (the heart of the Democratic Party's stranglehold of the state of NY) so it's not like it's impossible for the GOP to compete there...

Maybe we should ask New Yorkers why they think Trump sucks so much that he can't even put in play his home state.

:confusedshrug:

[9erempiree]

First of all Hillary is a politician and people obviously liked her to vote for her in senate. People VOTED for her and will probably do it again. Trump has never been in a position where people voted for him. This is essentially his first time.

Lets say if Bloomberg and Giuliani went against Hillary it would be pretty even since there were people that VOTED for those two.

[senelcoolidge]

New Yorkers are the ones that elect people such as Clinton, de Blasio, Spitzer, Koch, Dinkins, and other horrible officials. When they had Giuliani and Bloomberg they were actually good things vastly improved. So obviously they will not vote Trump since he's running Republican.

What you don't seem to understand is that everybody agrees he beat her on the economy.

Even if people think he got spanked on the birther issue and fat pageant queens, do you really think people are gonna put more stock into those issues than their own economic interests?

Trump still has a big lead with independants and Hillary is under performing in key Democrat demographics (blacks, young voters, Hispanics). She's obviously going to win those demographics, but she's not getting what a Democrat needs to win. There's also still a big enthusiasm gap in Trump's favor and Trump is mollywhopping her on the issue of honesty. 50% say Trump is honest and trustworthy. Only 35% say Hillary is.

Like I've always said, she has the advantage. It's roughly 60/40 in her favor. But 40% is a BIG chance of winning.

He's also underperforming with whites compared to Romney, and Mittens got whopped.

He is historically bad with minorities and terrible overall with women, and women are a majority in the country plus they vote more...I'm not seeing where he's gonna make up his lack of overall white support (compared to Mitt) to counter women and minorities :confusedshrug:

Overall, yeah, Trump voters are for sure more enthusisatic, but Trump has also highly energized segments of the population that can swing states like CO, NV and FL towards HC.

This is how narrow Trump's path is, he can win BOTH FL and OH and still lose. Clinton just needs PA, VA, CO and NV along with the likely Dem states and it's over.

Trump is also underperforming in solid red states like NC and TX, if Hispanics vote in massive numbers, don't be shocked if Texas is really close, especially considering that Texas republicans aren't that enthusiastic about Trump.

Yup, nothing about the UN. Nothing about censorship. This is the same plan to privatize the internet going on for over a decade.

Yeah, the headline on this is correct
U.S. set to hand over Internet address book. This is just maintenance of the Naming system of the internet. The company in charge of the address book, Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers, or ICANN already exists and is not the UN. It has been maintaining this address book since the 1998.
